I've seen a few threads asking about repair charges. So I thought I may as well ask a dumb question too.
Basic story. The jet in my well was siezed to the well casing. Pipe is polyethylene. I couldn't get it pulled.
Well contractor cam out and poured 5 gallon of muriatic acid down onto the jet throug a pipe. Next day the jet came loose and I pulled the pipe without any problem. Then the contractor came back out and blew the acid out of the well with compressed air. No other work performed by the contractor. The first trip about 30 to 45 minutes = $300.00, the second trip 1hr. and 15 minutes = $650.00. Total charge $950.00
Just wondered if the charge was consistent with the work performed. ( In Indiana ).
